Chapter 37 Awakening
In the castle.
In a spacious house.
Neil Morton slowly woke up from his deep sleep.
"Am I not dead?"
Neil Morton's expression was full of doubt.
In the last moment of his memory, his body was infected by the mandrake toxin.
Theoretically, if there were no high-level priests or a large amount of life force supplement, he should have died long ago.
But at this moment, he did not seem to return to the embrace of the goddess of life.
He could still feel his body and everything around him.
He could even sense that this should be a castle.
"I was saved?"
Doubts appeared, and Neil Morton was full of curiosity.
His expression was also thoughtful.
And just as he was doubtful.
Suddenly, he seemed to feel something, and his eyes instantly looked at the door.
And that was the moment he looked at the door.
"Creaky!"
The wooden door made a slight sound, and the next moment, a figure appeared in his sight.
It was a young knight, who seemed to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, with a tall body, handsome face, and a calmness.
"It seems that you have woken up!"
"How?"
A gentle voice sounded, Thor spoke with a smile, and his eyes looked at Neil Morton.
"Thank you for your help, I am grateful!"
"It's much better now!"
Neil Morton slightly performed a knight's etiquette.
At this moment, hearing Thor's words, looking at Thor's expression, and everything around him, Neil Morton naturally understood what happened.
"You are too polite!"
Thor smiled and shook his head.
"No, no, this is not polite. Without your help, I might have died in the jungle."
Neil Morton shook his head and spoke seriously.
As a sky knight, he knew his situation at that time very well. Without the help of the person in front of him, he would have died.
And he could also imagine that the other party might have paid a heavy price.
The life seed in his body was almost exhausted. Unless there was a large amount of source power to replenish, there was no way to reactivate it, but in the end his life seed was activated, and the result is needless to say.
He, Neil Morton, is not a person who doesn't care about gratitude.
Looking at Neil Morton's serious expression, Thor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It was obvious that the mysterious old man in front of him was not the kind of person who had no gratitude.
And this was undoubtedly a good result.
"Sir, you can call me Thor. I heard that you woke up, and I have asked the servants to prepare food."
"I hope I can be honored to invite you!"
A gentle voice sounded, and Thor immediately invited Neil Morton.
"Thank you, Knight Thor!"
Neil Morton hesitated for a moment, and then nodded to express his gratitude. At this moment, he had noticed that the other party did not have a noble medal, but as a lifesaver, he still respected him very much.
As for eating, he had not eaten for nearly two months. Even with the life potion, Neil Morton felt extremely hungry.
"It's my honor!"
Thor smiled and nodded, and then led Neil Morton to the restaurant.
When the two sat down.
Portions of food were also served.
"Where is Sir Neil from?"
A gentle voice sounded, Thor put on a scarf, and elegantly solved the food in front of him, and looked at Neil Morton curiously.
"I come from the east of the Tulip Kingdom, not from here."
"That is a beautiful place full of Melandi."
Neil Morton spoke with emotion, his thoughts drifted slightly, drifting to that distant hometown, and thinking of that figure, his expression was a little lonely.
"I'm really sorry, I was presumptuous and gave you a bad experience!"
Thor looked at Neil Morton's expression and then spoke quickly.
"No, no, Knight Thor, this is not a bad experience, you misunderstood!"
"I haven't thanked you for your help and hospitality yet!"
"I wonder if you need any help? If I can do it, I will do my best."
Neil Morton shook his head, then turned his words, looked at Thor, and spoke seriously.
"Sir Neil is polite, helping others is the virtue of every knight, isn't it?"
Thor smiled and spoke.
"That's true!"
Neil Morton was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and nodded.
He didn't mention it any more.
The two continued to eat.
After the meal.
Thor also said goodbye to Neil Morton directly.
Neil Morton was very strong, Thor even suspected that the other party might be a sky knight.
Even if he was not, he was definitely a top earth knight like his father. For such an existence, he naturally wanted to stay.
Repay.
It's not that he didn't want it.
But he wanted more.
Since he wanted more, he couldn't be impatient.
Especially after the contact, Thor could find that Neil Morton was actually a good person.
This undoubtedly gave him a lot of ideas.
For example, keep this person completely.
What is the most lacking in the entire Eagle Ridge now?
It's not resources, nor population.
In terms of resources, he now has a large amount of gold coins given by his father, and has also obtained a large iron mine. In addition, if the trade route can be opened in the future, the entire Eagle Ridge will not lack anything.
As for population.
That is even more not lacking.
With the opening of the trade route, the endless wealth is enough to rapidly increase his population.
In contrast, what the entire Eagle Ridge lacks most is high-end combat power.
Being in the Northland Province, his strength is indeed very strong compared to other lords, even stronger than ordinary baron territories.
But the real danger of the entire Northland Province is not those pioneering knights and lords, but the Northland Province itself.
As the territory of the orcs.
The Northland Province is not only full of a large number of monsters, but also a large number of orcs.
Even if a large number of orcs have been cleared.
But it is only a large number, and it is difficult to predict how many orcs the entire Northland Province has.
Among these orcs, there are extremely weak ones such as cowardly goblins, and also powerful races such as Titans and Behemoths.
Not to mention there are a large number of magic beasts.
Among them, high-level magic beasts are a real threat to the territory.
Although Ryan will definitely become a sky knight in the future, that is the future, not now.
Now the strongest person in the entire Eagle Ridge is only Steve, who is a great knight.
You can only deal with second-level magic beasts, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to deal with a third-level magic beast.
And the entire Northland Province must have third-level magic beasts and third-level orcs.
At this moment, a super strong man is in front of him. Thor doesn't want to stay, of course, that's a lie, especially when he finds that this one seems to be pretty good.
